Let’s take our minds off whether or not we will be the next person to receive an email to configure their Model 3.
Wanted to get some feedback and at the same time maybe let off a little steam. Consider this one a little on the side of the glass half empty.
I read a Tweet recently that really set me off. They showed a picture of what looked like about 12 ICE vehicles parked in Tesla marked EV charging locations. Maybe it’s my background but this kind of disrespect or disregard for any kind of rule, etc., just sets me off something fierce. Like the damn people who are not handicapped, yet park in handicap parking.
As the months progress and there are more and more Tesla’s needing to charge at these superchargers, what should be done about ICE vehicles parking in our charging spots? Many of us that are taking road trip NEED to charge our cars! When ICE vehicles are occupying the charger locations, we can’t continue our trip, or our trip is delayed.
So what do we do? If Tesla doesn’t own the land the chargers are on then it’s up to the Mall, hotel, etc. to take action. What if the Mall, hotel, or etc., won’t take action?
Possible solution is: Valve Stem Removers. Covertly remove two valve stems from the ICE vehicle tires and throw them into the grass or snow or whatever is close. Don’t steal them or damage them, just relocate them. Make sure to remove the stems out of two tires so the inconsiderate ICE vehicle owner can’t simply change their tire. And be sure to leave a 'love note' on the windshield reminding the owner “We don’t park in your gas station, please don’t park in ours”.
Now this is tongue in cheek to some respect and the ICE'ING problem may not be all that bad, but how would you handle being ICE’d when you have the wife and kids in your car and you NEED that charge to get to your destination or next hotel?
Look forward to hearing from all saints, devils, and those in between.
